Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: This paper applies the fixed-effects model to examine the effects of telecommunications on network expansion in the APEC countries. Three indicators are used to represent telecommunication liberalization: competition, privatization and regulatory independence. Two indicators are used to represent network expansion: telephone line and cellphone penetration. Based on the statistics data of ITU, from 1990 to 1999, the research finds that telecommunications liberalization has different levels of effects on network expansion. Among three indicators of liberalization, competition shows the most robust effects on network expansion both telephone and cellphone subscribers. The effects of privatization and regulatory independence on network expansion are divergent between developing countries and advanced economies of the APEC countries.
